You mean MTD finally started trying to use them.

The Kohler ECV engines have been using them for several years now.

Is it different than the Intelipower (sp?) on their riders with the dial in lieu of a throttle control? I've not had the pleasure to have to deal with repair on one of those either.

That just a cheap way of using at variable resistor. Under the download Kawasaki service notes is an lever style setup so the user still think they are using a standard throttle lever.

BTW the Kawasaki EFI engines also use electronic governors.
